11 Movies That Should Be On Your 'Netflix And Chill' Shortlist

So you've finally convinced her to get on board for a night of Netflix and chill.You've settled down on the couch, kicked up your feet after an awesome sushi delivery dinner, but the night is young. What's next? Netflix, then chill, or chill then Netflix (or both at the same time)? You fired up the 'flix (or Amazon Prime, or Now TV, or whatever) and are scrolling through the tons of B-level action movies, depressing documentaries and children's animation movies. How the hell are you supposed to find the one? That one flick that will upgrade your night in to the next level. What's the elusive, third base enabling, make out movie?

So here are 11 wingman movies for your next date. Some of them we guarantee will move things along smoothly. Others will help set the mood (or create a deep bond betwee her and Johnny Depp in Chocolat). For clarity, they're not all technically on Netflix but we're certain they're available on-demand somewhere. Ready to play?

Adventureland (2009)

Goofy Jesse Eisenberg falls in love with manic pixie dream girl and Twilight sweetheart Kristen Stewart in this feel good and extremely forgettable indie flick. It'll create an awesome warm and fuzzy atmosphere capable of allowing even the most inexperienced to get some.

Almost Famous (2000)

As long as you're not trying as hard as the protagonist of Almost Famous, you should be fine. It has the most epic soundtrack of all, and one of the most intimate and unusual love stories. It's a great pick, that is, if you actually want to sit down for a whole 90 minutes.

Clueless (1995)

Mixing classic Jane Austen romance with 90s nostalgia, this light but witty comedy has enough genuine laughs to get you giggling into each other's arms. Take notes from Paul Rudd, playing the archetypal nice guy, who bides his time and gets the girl.

Chocolat (2000)

If Johnny Depp can charm the pants off chocolatière Juliette Binoche by seductively eating her chocolate treats, why can't you? Pick up a box of chocolates Valentine's Day style, and let this movie speak on your behalf. Oh, and Johnny Depp totally rocks some man braids in case you noticed.

Bad Boys (1995)

Legendary bro flick it may be, but Bad Boys will serve as your best Netflix wingman when it comes to chilling on the couch. It's sexy, it's fast paced, and adds a touch of quintessential (and necessary) humour to a potentially amazing night in. What you gonna do? What you gonna do when they come for you. Though don't say that to her, obviously.

Friends with Benefits (2011)

Okay it's not subtle and the title might be a dead giveaway. And it may not be a great way to spend an erotic night with your best friend. But Justin Timberlake and Mila Kunis make a surprisingly great fit for a time-tested paint by the numbers rom-com. While also making a strong case for casual sex along the way.

The Notebook (2004)

We know, this pick is extremely on the nose, and seems far too obvious. But that's exactly why you should choose it. Besides, chances are very high your date already watched more than once and will hopefully be able to pay you more attention.

Grease (1978)

Who knows, maybe it turns out she is the one that you want. You need to prove to her you're the kind of man who can dig a musical. Like, don't go overboard and show her your Glee DVD collection or anything. But we're sure she'll appreciate it.

They Came Together (2014)

It promises to take you on a journey of true love, but instead takes a dump on it. It features pretty much the entire cast of Wet Hot American Summer, which is an awesome thing as far as we are concerned. It'll make her laugh, and realize that you're a guy who doesn't take himself too seriously. Which is important. And besides, Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd are a match made in comedy heaven.

BEFORE SUNRISE (1995)

For the hopeless romantic, Before Sunset could be a great pick. That is, if you don't have a problem with listening to an argument between two people for a good 90 minutes. But there's a whole lot of truth and meaning behind Ethan Hawke's rambling and a great way to kick things off for a night in.

Vampire's Kiss (1988)

If Nic Cage's experience doesn't make both of you crack the hell up, there's something wrong with the both of you. You'll lose your mind with laughter as Nic Cage loses his. His stellar performance is nothing to be missed or enjoyed alone. We suggest turning it off and getting to business before it wraps up though. The supposed "love story" derails and the weirdness becomes pretty overbearing.
